Plan, sort, remove and clean, in that order. Gather valuables and papers first, clear exits and hazards, then empty room by room into keep, donate, recycle and discard groups. You can get a cleanout team for the heavy lifting and a deep clean to finish.
That depends on the plan. Some jobs end broom-clean, and others include deep cleaning, disinfecting and odor treatment. Ask the team to say exactly what the job covers before work starts.
Regular junk removal assumes you point at items and they go. A hoarding cleanout includes sorting for valuables, hazard checks, protective gear, disposal of spoiled or contaminated items and cleaning afterward. It takes more care and more time.
Usually the owner. For an estate, the estate pays or the cost comes from the sale of the house. Family members sometimes share it. In a rental, the lease and local law decide between landlord and tenant.
Not always. If access can be arranged, the owner or a family member does not have to stay on site. Clear instructions about what to keep and a way to reach someone help the job go smoothly.
